Another Merger Of Local Banks Negotiations are being carried on to bring about another banking merger in this city and again the Minera bank Is the principal party to it, Tho merger la planned to bring the Luzemo County National under the wing of the Miners, which aome time ago absorbed tbe Anthracite and People's banks. If this merger goes through It will be the flrst national institution to bo merged with the Miners. The Miners is at present the strongest flnancial institution in I.uzerne County and there are not more than one or two ttanks in all of Northeastern Pennsylvania more powerful In resources. The Luzeme National baa also made rapid strides tho past few years and today enjoys con.siderable pres¬ tige, posse8.slng a bank building that cost JS'OO.OOO and having a Ciipital of HiO.OOO, ¦wltb resources of almost $6,000,000. Tho.se who should ba In touch with the progress of the merger refused to make any deflnlte state¬ ment la-st evening. They admitted that the merger has come in for considerable discussion by tha ili- rectorates of both Institutions, but felt that It is too early to make an authoritative statement lest -some¬ thing should happen to defeat the alms of those taidng tbe lead In the movement.

S.—Tbe adminis¬ tration prepared tonight to Invoke broad powora from tha conspiracy statutes to enforce the Chicago in¬ junction obtained against rail strikers in a desi>crate effort to hold up the transportation system of tbe n.ation. Uclicving that only the most drastic steps can prevent a break down, the administration has decided to supple¬ ment Its injunction proceedings with application of tbe conspiracy laws, it was learned. In invoking the conspiracy statutes the admini.stratlon believes it will bave tho double effcctji of restraining the leaders of the big four brotherhoods from permitting their men to aid the shopmen and general labor from go¬ ing out on a geniiral sympathetic strike. Several uresis were under¬ stood to l>e planned by federal agents for violation of the far reaching in¬ junction .secured by Attorney General Daugherty re-straining tho shopmen and their leaders from Interfering with transportation. Department of Justice agenta are invcsii.sating statements and inter¬ views given out by strike leaders and others heid aa violatious of tbe in¬ junction. President Harding made It known that he is prepared to go even further than injunctions and this was con¬ strued as meaning tl-at federal troops would be called iuto service if the present protection afforded the rail¬ roads proves inadequate. It was held probable that Governors Would be asked to send State troops into serv'ice befoi-e the I'resident or¬ ders federal troops to protect railroad property. In spite of the sliarp resentment Voiced by organized lat>or in general and Samuel Gompers, President of the American Federation of Labor in par- ticul.ir, federal agents appeared con¬ fldent that a general sympathetic strike will nol be called. Labor lead¬ ers would not dare order their 5,000,- 000 members to sink; with the conse¬ quential barm to the country, il was slated. Gompers. after a blistering attack on the administration for securing what he termed the 'most outrageous and sweeping injunction in the his¬ tory of tlie countr>," today again .showed his defiance by sending the following telegram to Bert M. Jewell, head of the striking shopmen: "Al a meeting of the labor legislative repre¬ sentatives, July 21, il resolution was adopted conveying to you and through you to the sir,king railway shopmen the pledge of our sympathy and sup¬ port to tbe fullest extent within our power. ••.\t the meeting of the same confer¬ ence this evening.

(Signed) "Samuel Gompera, "Chairman of tlie Council." The Labor Council is composed of Gompers, K. F. Kobtrts, E. F. Grady and £klgar Wallace. Administration leaders do not ex¬ pect any action for .i general .strike until next Saturday when the Council meets again. Gompers said he would place before the Council the increas¬ ing demand for a geiiei-al strike. The strike demand is coming from "every section of the country. * JOYFUL RECEIPT OF NEWS Ending Of Coal Suspension Marked By Thankfulness Of A Prayerful Nature ^* Scale Committee Meets Tonight; Tri-District Session Wednesday WORD TRAVELS FAST Theatre Audience Is First To Qct It And Applause Greets The Glad Tidings GETTING MINES READY Wyoming Valley went t^ bed late last niglit after hearing the best news since tho end of tho Worid War. With an early resumption of anthracite coal mlnln:^ assured together with the con¬ sequent restoration of peace and pros¬ perity to the region, announcement of the agreement reached between opera¬ tors and miners wjis received ever>'- whcre with relief and joy. Tho news spread through the popu¬ lous communities,of the valley as well as to Isolated hamlets and towns with the speed that only news of vast im¬ portance, can acquire. The end of the flvo months' suspension was known practically everywhere within a half hour. Contrary to predictions m.-ide In various quatlers, the announcement was greeted with an entirely new kind of reception. In.steaii of thero being the screeching of whistles and street celebrati3n.s, the hysteria usually found in the passing, of a public crisis was lacking. In its place was a. quiet, sober dem- onstratif.n of heartfelt thanks. Hand¬ shaking, exclamations of relief from young and old alike, and beaming countenances took the places of noisy celebrations. .Vccording to one man, it was the kind of a celebration that had a deeper significance than a bois¬ terous outbreak. In ono or two pl.ices natural en- thtisiasm did mount high. One of the.se was Poli's theater. Manager John J. Galvin appeared on the stage before a large audience and told them that the Sunday Independent had an¬ nounced the end of the strike. Im¬ mediately there was .a tumult. Cheers and applau.so that almost raised the roof continued for several minutes. Il w;is the first public announcement of the suspension's end. Resumption of Work. As soon as the agreement between the operators and miners became a certainty, the next important consid¬ eration in the minds of the public had to do with the earliest possible time to resume work in the mines. It is gcntmlly agreed that the cutting of coal cannot be started before Mon¬ day, September 11. Duo to union regulatjons. which make imperative the holding of a tri-district convention, actual mining cannot be started this week. How¬ ever, coal companies will start today preparing their properties for the re¬ turn of the men. Mules that have been In pasture for several months, will be Immediately lowere<I to the underground stable.s. New timber for props in manways and cliambers will be sent into the mines. ,An Indication that the com¬ panies will utlllzo every remaining moment in thesa preparations was given last night when it became known that some companies had forces of employes in supervisory capacities waiting at their post* for first word of the settlement. It is likely that the companlea wiil request tho union for the right to send limliermen nnd others Into the underground passages to do some nece.ssary repair work. A similar re¬ quest was made two weeks ago by the Hudson Coal Company but it was re¬ jected by the miners. With an agreement reached, it is believed the union may relax and per¬ mit the repair work to proceed, but this is a matter entirely up to union officials for a decision. The mmes generally nre in pood condition. The union allowed main¬ tenance men to keep at work during the suspension. These employees kept the pumps running and the ma¬ chinery In good condition, .^^ccord- ingly only a small few cf the collieries are flooded. Tbe only probable source of delay may come from defective roofing Ciiused by the rotting of tim¬ bers but this condition can be over¬ come. In the opinion cf minin,g men, within a compamtlvely short time. .\nthnic;te coal will be ready" for .sale within twenty-four hours after the mines start working. Ai present the coal pockets have been emptied. Orders cannot be placed. The danger of a fuel famine, however, has passed through the agreement reached In Philadelphia. The old coal prices wil* prevail. Agents of the United Mine Workers sprang into im¬ mediate action late last night preparing the way for the final steps necessary to make the settlement of the an¬ thracite coal suspension really effective. Early today members of the scale committee were being roused from bed with instructions to attend a meeting of the full body tonight at 8 o'clock in the Belleviie-Stratford, Philadelphia. At the same time plans were beiiig rushed to open the tri- district convention 6t minei-s, necessary to ratify the pact, in this city Wednesday afternoon or no later than Thurs¬ day. Union headquarters in this city was in communication with the leaders at Philadelphia yesterday at various hours learning of developments as the situation slowly moved to * a final adjustment. John B. Gallagher, district auditor, was instmcted to hold himself in readiness for any emerg¬ ency work required. Word finally came to Gallagher shortly before mid¬ night. He immediately started out to round up the scale committee members in his district. He reached some of them by telephone, but to get in communication with oth¬ ers it was necessary for him to hire an automobile and travel to their homes. At 3 o'clock this moiTiing Gallagher was dashing around the county with instructions for all members to take the 12:20 p. m. Lehigh Valley train to¬ day for Philadelphia. In the meantime, preliminary arrangements were made for the tri-district convention to be held in Wilkes- Barre. Under union rules it will take a convention of nearly 1,000 delegates, similar along general lines to the Shamokin meeting last January to formally accept the same proposal approved by the operators. Officers of the Y. M. C. A. were ^sked yesterday afternoon for the use of the association's auditorium for three days, beginning next Thursday. When word of the settlement came, the request was altered and the lease on the hall made to date from next Wednesday. The as¬ sociation will likely give its answer today. The convention will require at least three days, ac¬ cording to union spokesmen. They expect John L. Lewis, international president of the United Mine Workers, to attend it. Vice President Philip i\Iun-ay, Chairman Thomas Kennedy of the scale committee, the other dis¬ trict presidents and others prominent in the negotiations just ended will deliver addresses. Kennedy will be chair¬ man of the convention.

The new agreement affects approxi¬ mately l.')5,000 miners who have been idle since April flrst. The men will not return to work, however, until the pact is ratified by a trl-dlstrict convention of union offic¬ ials from the hanl coal regions. This meeting will tako place within 24 hours, it Wits learned as the confer¬ ence disbanded. The meeting prob¬ ably will be held in WUkes-Barre, one mine district president said. The peace proposal was to have been ratified In Washington before I'resi¬ dent Harding, it was learned, but this was prevented by the long conference of the operators yesterday. This con¬ ference which started at 10 a. m. did not end until nearly 7:30 p. m. The long delay in accepting the peace plan by the operators was due to the fact, it is said, that two opera¬ tors refu.sed to "give in," demanding that a flght for reduced waces be con¬ tinued. Theso operators were Anally won over and enabled the vote to be unanlmoua. Pepper Suci-essful Senator I'epper will leave Phila¬ delphia early today, planning to Join his family at Bar Harlwr. Senator Heed will return to Washington. Lewis and Murray have made no plans for the next few days. The dis¬ trict presidents will return to their posts early this (Sunday) m.oming. Announcement of the joint session was made by Samuel D. Warriner, spokesman for the operators. .Warriner announced that the oper¬ ators had taken a "definite stand withojit string.s." "If a. clear-cut acceptance had been niade there would not have been any occasion for tonight's meeting," War¬ riner told reporters. "I do not mean to imply that there has been any dif¬ ficulty or reverse. That's about all I hi"- to say." Tbe joint conference was called to onni .-.lortly ^iter 9 oVlttck by Sen¬ ator Pepper. Ho immediately resigned ine (.nuir to Janaes .\. Gorman, sec¬ retary of the committee. Shortly after the conference a.s.tem- bled. Senator David A. Reed arrived. He will appear before the disruptants, it was said. Four Conditions Before entering the conference the operators held a meeting in the Ritz- Carlton at which time they drew up resolutions in which ihey announced th<^v would accept tho proposals made by Senators Reed and Pepper, as fol¬ io wa: (Continued On Paee 15) To Obtain Control Of Tlie Farm-Labor Organization ATTACK PRE-EMPTORS Members of Non-Parti.san Political Campaign Committeo following their meeting in l^hion hall last night, an¬ nounced that during tho week legal prpceed'ng-s will be instituted again.st Evan .J. Williams, prothonotary of Liuzerne county, charging alleged- breach of confidence in allowing a Farm-Labor party to be pre-empted in Dauphin county cotirts while a pe¬ tition flletl by the laboring men for the establishment of a party bearing the sa:ne name was on flle in the pro- thonotary's office. Although It is not known tiiat Mr. Williams was respon¬ sible for the pre-emption of the party the laboring men say that It was pre¬ empted by men In hi.s office and that a public official is responsible for the acts of men employed by him. The Non-Parti.san Political League has engaged Attorney Thomas D. Shea of Nanticoke, to start the pro¬ ceedings and it is possible that a num¬ ber of othor lawyers will be engaged in the next few days. Members of the committee announced that it is possible that legal proceedings will be instituted against other county offi¬ cials for their alleged part In what the committee terms the "theft of a whole party." It was announced that Mr. Williama had disclaimed any knowledge of the pre-emption of the party while the papers of laboring men were on file in the prothonotary's office but the union men say he is responsible for the acta of hia employees who. they allege, did flle the petition in Dauphin County courts. The men say they went to the court hou.se in the latter part of April and filed^a petition in the prothonotary's office for the pre-emption of the Farm-Labor porty. They say they were led to believe that the prothono¬ tary's office was the proper place to flle the petition and that it Was left there. Several days later the Fsrm- Labor party was pre-empted at Har¬ risburg by several court hou.se clerks and later another .set of court house clerks had the rights of the party turned over to them. According to the members of the league the following court house clerks first pre-empted the party in Dauphin County courts: John Roberts. 31."! Church street, Nanticoki,-; Harold C.

The miners will return to work under the old wage agreement which will stand until August 31, 1923, subject to ratification by the scale com¬ mittee and by the tri-district convention. Announcement of the set- tlement was made in a statement issued by Senators Pepper and Reed in whose offices the joint conference was held. Acceptance of the new agreement came after three hours of meeting. The state¬ ment issued by tlie two Senators, embodying the terms of agree¬ ment accepted by both sides, is as follows: "We are glad to be able to announce that the representatives of the operators and of the United Mine Workers have responded to the request of President Harding and have reached such agree¬ ment on all essential points as insures the ending of the anthracite coal strike in the immediate future. Under date of August 29th, after consulting with Secretary Hoover, with the approval of the President, we delivered the following communication to the repre¬ sentatives of both parties to the controversy: ttt ttt tf To S. D. Warriner, Esquire, chairman policy committee an' thracite operators, and to Mr. John L. Lewis, president of the Unit¬ ed Mine Workers of America: As Senators representing the Com¬ monwealth in which the anthracite fields lie, we earnestly urge your acceptance of the following proposal: TERMS OF CONTRACT "1—The contracts in force March 31, 1922, to be extended to A ugust 31,1923, or March 31,1924. 2—The production of coal to begin at once, 3—Your organizations to join in recommending to Congress that legislation be forthwith enacted creating a separate anthracite coal commission, with authority to investigate and report promptly on every phase of the industry. "4—The continuance of production after the extension date, to be upon such terms as the parties may agree upon in the light of the report of the commission. (Signed) "George Wharton Pepper, "David A. Reed." Thereupon Secretary Hoover, Secretary Davis and Governor Sproul used all the influence which they properly could in the inter¬ est of acceptance. The President, at whose instance ihe whole nego¬ tiation had been undertaken, addressed to tlie parties the following urgent request for settlement: PRESIDENTS LETTER ftr The White House, Wasliington, Sept. 2,1922. To the representatives of the anthracite operators and miners: "The public interest transcends any partisan advantage that you might gain by further resistance. I urge you in the name of public welfare to accede to the proposal that has been advanced by Senators Pepper and Reed. **Very truly, yours, "Warren G. Harding." "Thereupon both parties indicated their readiness to yield to the President*s wish. A joint conference was accordingly called for 9 p. m., Sept. 2, and at the conference a memorandum of agreement was made incorporating the terms of our proposal and adopting the date of August 31,1923, as the expiration date of the extended agree¬ ment. We understand that this agreement is subject to ratification by the scale committee and by the tri-district convention of the an¬ thracite mine workers which will be convened at the earliest possible moment" (Continued on First Page, Second Section)
